Mimmi Sandén - Holding Out For A Hero lyrics

[Intro] I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach And the perfect waves are starting to come His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold And his touch has got the power to stun But I don't see any angels in the city I don't hear any holy choirs sing And if I can't get an angel I can still get a hero A hero'd be the next best thing [Verse] Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the streetwise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and I turn, and I dream of what I need I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me I need a hero
